9 WG7 Internal Dosimetry WORK PLAN Task 7.5.-Uncertainties on dose assessments Coordinator: E. Blanchardon (IRSN) NEW Dosimetry of workers addressed in connection with epidemiology studies. Objective: In the frame of an epidemiological study of occupational exposure to uranium, to validate the dose assessment protocol, to identify sources of uncertainty, and to discuss the assessment of uncertainty on dose. Exercise: to calculate lifetime doses for 3 uranium workers (deadline 30/6/15) Main objective: to review different approaches of thedose assessment process in order to feed the discussion on the assessment of dosimetricuncertainties. To reveal items missed inthedosimetry protocol of CURE Project to try to improve it in future projects. 9

Giussani (BfS) Review on the use of biodosimetrymethods and internal dosimetry evaluations in scenarios involving internal exposures. 10 case scenario studies. Publication in process 1 st draft was discussed in Milano The contact persons of each case (1 WG10 & 1 WG7) will be contacted for agreement in the content of the manuscript Final revision by all WG10/WG7 participants of this joint study: summer 2016 Preliminary conclusions and gaps: Proper dosimetric quantities are required to be compared with the biological endpoints Special models must be developed for reliable blood dosimetry, to determine the blood dose and to know how this quantity correlates with the information provided by biological assays. Clinic studies: experiments can be conducted in cooperation with nuclear 12 medicine units (e.g. ENEA Study A. Testa)
